Dreadful
Pros:

The grounds were nice. The breakfast was good. Unfortunately everything else was very poor. We were only there for 2 nights or would have complained and got a change of room.

Cons:

On entering our room had overpowering smell of room freshener. We removed the electric diffuser from socket and opened all windows (one of which latch was broken). We were there for only 2 nights and went straight out. Came back went to bed. Next morning saw reason for strong scent. Pulled curtain far back and windowsill was rotten wood and falling apart. There was some mold on wall and carpet. As we were out all day and just went back to sleep we didn't bother getting room changed. One last point room was like a cell. Windows looked out on walls and roofs. This should have been mentioned. Would never have booked it. Room looked nice on website.

NOT HAPPY
Pros:

The location

Cons:

The window sill in the room was rotten, the window latch wasn’t attached so window couldn’t be closed. Got moved to another room with a rusty bathroom radiator, that had the electrical leaf cut so it didn’t work. The waterfall in the spa still wasn’t working, and the jacuzzi was turned off at 5.45 pm Not happy with our stay !

Beautiful setting and a sumptuous breakfast.
Pros:

Beautiful setting. Quiet and comfortable bed room. Fully equipped with fan, safe iron etc. Great staff everywhere! Generous, good quality breakfast. We didn’t leave ourselves enough time to use the spa facilities.

Cons:

The window lock in room 117 needs repairing and the dining room ceiling needs re plastering after what looks like a leak. Most of the corridors/carpets need a little tlc.

Comfortable stay. Would return.
Pros:

We were given a lovely welcome by a very nice, pleasant, helpful young man at the reception desk.
The bedroom was very clean and bed very comfortable. The grounds are lovely to walk around.

Cons:

The bedroom could do with updating. Disappointed the hotel restaurant wasn't open on a Tuesday. Prefer breakfast to be served rather than buffet style. Although you could see steam rising at the buffet, the breakfast was lukewarm

Pros:

Nice hotel, staff friendly.

Cons:

The hotel needs some re decoration in some areas.
There is no lighting in the car park, it is in a wooded area, this needs to feel safer at night.
